Connection Cloud, a revolutionary PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service)
technology enabling real-time access to SaaS data in the cloud,

market.

Singh is a highly regarded Silicon Valley leader with a proven track
record of taking both established and emerging software companies to
accelerated levels of growth. He will drive company initiatives to
further penetrate the global market and to develop new channel
opportunities for the technology which launched in June, 2012.

In leading company business strategy, Singh will work closely with Roger
Sippl, Connection Cloud founder and lead architect. Sippl will continue
as Chief Technology Officer and take the post of Executive Chairman as
well.

“Elastic Intelligence is at a point in its growth path where we need an
ace to take us to the next level and capitalize on the growing market
acceptance we have quickly achieved. We believe Ajay Singh is the right
person to enable us to take full advantage of the unique opportunity we
have before us in the enterprise market,” said Sippl.

“In just a short time, the Connection Cloud has become a key enabler of
business intelligence solutions as companies recognize it to be the
missing link to accessing SaaS data in real time,” said Singh. “I am
excited about the virtually unlimited possibilities that the Connection
Cloud’s connection service has in solving an enormous problem for
enterprises, that of accessing data in the cloud. Current cloud data
access or integration solutions are not in real time and involve the
time and money drain of custom development or extensive data
warehousing. Clearly, on time to value, price point and real time
performance, the Connection Cloud is the best solution in the market
place.”

Market Momentum

Elastic Intelligence, in a short while, has moved to the forefront of
entrepreneurial companies delivering innovative solutions to accessing
data in the cloud. Among its achievements over the past year are:

Securing key partner agreements with companies such as Sererra, a
technology and management consulting firm that is partnered with
NetSuite, Salesforce, Intacct, SugarCRM and SAP, among others.

Developing a host of connectors to enable users to leverage SaaS data
from where it resides, in the cloud, saving enterprises significant
development and IT expense.

Tracking the exponential growth of the Connection Cloud user base as
its marketing channel expands and more users are signing up on a
weekly basis.
